Interesting. Thanks for the MSDS sheet, and the other information. I eagerly await test resaults and more data.

The fact that it doesn't contain any ptfe is extremely good. Same, I suppose goes for Moly, as adding high levels of moly only seems useful for extending drain intervals, normal levels protect at normal intervals as well, or better than high treat rates do.

To speculate about your product, I hope that is isn't a chlorinated pariffin, which is about the only typical snake oil approach that you haven't eliminated. chlorinated pariffin can turn in incredible timken and 4-ball wear tests, but turn very corrosive when exposed to moisture and combustion by-products. They also attack the ZDDP additives in good oils.

So...is your additive a chlorinated paraffin?

Best case, since we know that your additve isn't a metal, I'd guess that it could be an organic ester of some type.
